Chapter 020

Encountering robbery by bandits (Thanks! Additional update!)

It was still a bit cold on the Yangtze River in early November. Not to mention the cold wind blowing on the river! The welfare of the two places was not bad. In October, cotton-padded clothes were distributed. The clothes were lying on the deck, even if they were covered with

It’s still a little chilly even under the quilt!

After sleeping for a while, Yu Zecheng slowly moved the quilt to Wu Kuiyuan. The two of them huddled together to keep themselves warm.

Wu Kuiyuan took the opportunity to put his little hand into Yu Zecheng's quilt and took his hand.

Yu Zecheng knew that she was a little cold, so he squeezed her hand hard, and then placed her hand on his heart inside his cotton-padded coat.

Wu Kuiyuan glanced at Yu Zecheng and closed her eyes! This reminded her of her mother! When she was a child, every time her little hands were a little cold, her mother would put her hands on her mother's chest. Now it's not just

Her little hands felt a kind of warmth, and a warm current spread from her arms to her whole body. She closed her eyes to enjoy this feeling of happiness wholeheartedly!

Wu Yimei couldn't stand it anymore. She turned around and was back to back with Wu Kuiyuan. There was a gap behind them. Yu Zecheng was worried that they would catch a cold, so he picked up a scarf and stuffed it on their backs.

Yu Zecheng clearly felt Wu Kuiyuan's hand squeeze me hard. Yu Zecheng knew that she was touched by her thoughtfulness. If this was in bed, she would definitely want that!

It is a pity that Wu Kuiyuan did not graduate from telecommunications, otherwise, they could have used Morse code to flirt.

The young people were very sleepy. Although it was very cold, they fell asleep quickly.

The next morning, the small steamer arrived at the pier in Anqing. The pier was a place that was easily attacked by Japanese aircraft and could not stay for a long time. They quickly disembarked and passed through the pier quickly.

Their marching route was first to the northwest, to Gaohe, then to Huaining, Qianshan, Taihu and other counties, then to Huangmei County, Hubei Province, and then to Wuhan. This road was all highway. It was not difficult to walk and it was not easy to get lost.

.

Even though they were at the rear, Captain Chen still asked them to advance in battle formation. The captain carried a medium-sized rifle and had a gun on his waist. He led two male comrades to serve as spearheads in front. The others were more than a hundred meters behind.

Keep distance between each other and follow.

Because Wu Kuiyuan and Wu Yimei were famous gunmen, they protected Yu Zecheng, a "civilian" from behind.

In fact, Yu Zecheng's marksmanship is not bad! Now a big and thick man needs two women to protect him, which makes Yu Zecheng a little embarrassed. However, with his fiancée and the beautiful woman Wu Yimei accompanying him, he is also happy to see the success.

After marching into the afternoon, everyone was a little tired.

When Yu Zecheng saw Wu Kuiyuan holding a gun and carrying a big backpack, he felt a little distressed and said, "Kuiyuan, let me carry the backpack for you!"

Because they were migrating long distances, they also had a lot of their own clothes and other supplies in their backpacks. The weight was much heavier than ordinary backpacks. Members of the action team were different from field troops in that they had to prepare one or two sets of civilian clothing. Therefore,

Only then would Yu Zecheng buy clothes for Wu Kuiyuan and Wu Yimei in Nanjing.

Wu Kuiyuan has a strong personality, and maybe she feels sorry for Yu Zecheng. She said: "I'm not tired!"

Wu Yimei immediately climbed up the pole and said, "Yu Zecheng, I'm tired, please help me carry it!"

Yu Zecheng was so energetic when he saw Wu Yimei just now! When he looked at her again, he immediately became unhappy. He stepped forward to take her backpack and hung it on his chest.

Wu Kuiyuan was unhappy, but since Wu Yimei was her best friend, she couldn't stop her. She said unforgivingly: "You two have already hooked up, right?"

Even if the matter between the two of them involves himself, Yu Zecheng must not interfere! He took a step forward to prevent them from seeing his face that couldn't help but laugh.

Wu Yimei said slowly: "Kuiyuan, no matter what extent we and I go to, it will not affect your eldest sister's status!"

When Wu Kuiyuan heard this, a smile appeared on his face! She said half-truthfully: "Anyway, one of you is my fiancé and the other is my best friend. If something is going to happen between you two, you must tell it before it happens.

Just tell me! If you hide it from me, huh...!"

Wu Yimei is much more open now. Perhaps she took the opportunity to express her thoughts half-heartedly. She said: "Zecheng, you see, the eldest sister has already talked to this extent. Why don't you express anything at all?"

Yu Zecheng said sincerely: "It's weird that I have to express this to you! First, I don't want to eat your fish, even though your fish looks very charming! I have met countless people in later generations. I still have this resistance."

Secondly, I don’t want to cause a scandal. Even if Wu Kuiyuan says it in person! Who knows what she thinks? Who knows whether she will regret it afterwards?'

However, concubinage was very common in society at that time. Even their fathers, they all had concubines! It was easier for women to accept concubines from their husbands than later generations of women.

The population in the Gaohe area of ​​Anqing is relatively dense. It is easy to find fellow villagers to stay overnight at night!

Along the way, there were a lot of people fleeing! Most of them were ordinary people, dragging their families with them and struggling to walk on the road. There were also families like landlords and squires. These families all brought carriages and servants with guns!

The journey was relatively smooth, and a few days later, they arrived near the junction of Anhui Province and Hubei Province.

"Pah...pah!" Suddenly there was a gunshot in front!

Everyone reflexively moved to both sides of the road!

Yu Zecheng and Wu Kuiyuan moved to the left side of the road. Wu Yimei was on the right.

Wu Kuiyuan said: "Zecheng, don't be afraid! I'm here!"

Grandma! What am I afraid of here? It’s not like facing the Japanese! It’s just a few bandits! Besides, you two sharpshooters are protecting you. Yu Zecheng said: “I’m not afraid! Otherwise, you can give me the backpack to carry.”

Well, this way, it will be easier for you to fight!"

This time, Wu Kuiyuan did not refuse, because last time she saw Yu Zecheng carrying Wu Yimei's backpack for several hours without any reaction. She quickly took off the backpack.

Yu Zecheng took the backpack and hung it on his chest! He shouted to Wu Yimei: "Yimei, put down the backpack, I will carry it right away!"

Wu Yimei glanced at Wu Kuiyuan, and when she saw that Wu Kuiyuan had no objection, she glanced at Yu Zecheng with a look of awe, and then put down her backpack.

A few more sporadic gunshots rang out in front!

Captain Chen shouted: "No big problem! It's probably a robbery by bandits. Let's go and have a look!"

Everyone rushed forward with guns in hand.

Yu Zecheng went over and slung Wu Yimei's backpack on his left shoulder, holding the bag in his right hand and chased forward.

Sure enough, it was the bandits who were robbing the passing landlord! The landlord was also guarded by about a dozen servants, and everyone had a gun. The two sides were shooting at each other, sometimes without firing! Because the distance was more than 150 meters, both sides suffered casualties.

Not much!

Captain Chen still had a sense of justice and stepped forward and shouted: "Listen to the bandits on the mountain! Stop robbing people on the road immediately! Otherwise, my army will wipe you out!"
